The camp is designed for high school age players with little or no formal instruction. Players will work on the basic strokes and serves plus learn about court positions. Call BFR 419-358-4150 to reserve a space for the 1:30 p.m. or 3 p.m. group. 

Cost per player is $60 ($45 BFR member); scholarships for those with financial need are available.
